Rancho RS5000X 4″ Front Lift Shocks for 2004-2012 GMC Canyon Aluminum Driveshaft

Part Number: RS55610

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X Series gas-pressurized shock absorber is engineered to provide a smooth, controlled ride for your GMC Canyon. Designed specifically for vehicles equipped with a 4-inch lift, these shocks utilize a patented Cross-Tuned technology to manage impacts and vibrations effectively. The twin-tube design prioritizes durability and dent resistance, ensuring reliable performance during daily driving and light off-road use.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique progressive engagement valving system provides increased control of spring motion to ensure a balanced ride across varying terrains.
• Gas Pressurization: High-pressure Nitrogen gas charge provides a consistent damping force to ensure reduced aeration and shock fade.
• Twin-Tube Body: A 2.25-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Nitro-Carburized Piston Rod: The heavy-duty 16mm rod provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these shocks lift my GMC Canyon?
No, these shocks are configured for a 4-inch lift and do not create the lift themselves; they provide the necessary travel for a vehicle already equipped with a lift kit.

What is the benefit of the gas pressurization in the RS5000X?
The Nitrogen gas charge minimizes the mixing of air and oil (aeration), which keeps the damping consistent even when the shock is working hard on rough roads.

Are these shocks sold as a pair?
Yes, this specific SKU (2xRS55610_n660) includes 2 front shocks for a complete axle installation.
